PENNSYLVANIA VACUUM CUP, BARNEY OLD FIELD
AND GOODRICH TIRES IN BOTH FABRIC AND CORD
Vou all know the quality of Goodrich Tires and while
Pennsylvania and Oldfield Tires are new in this section
their reputation is known world wide.
It is our policy to carry but the very best in the tire line
ar.il so we have chosen these three. Let us put one on your
tar it will speak for itself.
THE SAFETY GRIP OF PENNSYLVANIA
Cup
Vacuum
TIRES
The Vacuum Cup Tread of four rows of massive Vacu
um Cups is the only tread guaranteed not to skid on wet,
slipery pavements.
The weight of the car presses the Cups successively
artinst. the pavement and seals each Cup with vacuum
suction. This grip is instantly released by the forward
rolling of the tires which lifts the cups edgewise, releases
the vacuum without resistance, and prevents speed deten
tion. Vacuum Cup Tires are guaranteed per warranty tag
for 6,000 miles, practically double the mileage of ordi
nary 3,500 mile tires.
Despite this difference. Vacuum Cup Tires cost ap
proximately the same as tires assuring little more than
half the mileage, and much less than any other make car
rying equal mileage surety. In view of this combined
economy, service and safety, the reason for the ever-increasing
heavy demand for Vacuum Cup 6000 Mile Tires
is apparent.

CITV OF MKXICO, Jan 10 Buglctf
blared, eiKhUn-n thounund Mexican
throats tested the full capacity of
ofghteen thouKund pair of Mexican
luiifcH, a Kate swung up on one Bide of
the pit and a shouting bull, ItH head
describing a vicious circle, rushed In
to thr full glare of an afternoon sun.
The bull flKht had returned to Mexico.
buck In 115, the Oarranza govern
ment barred the bull fight from the
federal district, in wtch the Mexican
capital Is located. And for four year
the public has been clamoring for Its
revival. The authorities finally re
lented. A propitious time for its re
turn, they decided, was during the
lislt here of the murines and naval of
ficers from Attn ntina, Uruguay and
Cuba, who came to Mexico with their
warships as an escort to the body of
'he Mexican poet. Ainado Nervo, who
died while on a diplomatic mission to
.South America. So the bull baiting,
in a way. was in their honor.
Itiill Spared, Hordes 1P
But more than that It was to ap
pease the demand of Mexican public,
in an effort to be humane "the au
thorities ruled that the battle should
contain all the trimmings of a regular
finish fight except that the bufl
dinuld not be Killed. And anybody
knows that to spare the bull removes
al! the thrill from any toreo. Any
way, the bull escaped the slaughter
house but In their crusade for h'.'mnn
ity the authorities overlooked the
horses. Three of them, pitiful vic
tims of a bull's savage horns, were
killed during the afternoon. liut
that's part of the game, and always
has been, so the paradox causes no
comment here. What Mexico City
wants is dead bulls.
Head and alive, the bulls and the
sport they provided presented to an
American all the picturesque features
which had been promised by stag
and fiction. The bull ring, said to be
the largest In the world, not except
ing the one In Madrid can accommo
date 25,000 persons. Rising from the
circular arena, tier after tier of seats
were Tilled with fans, with the digni
taries occupying the boxes nt the top.
The dyed-in-the-wool fans, the bleach
e rites of Mexico's national sport, fill
ed the "sun scoction." Hero are the
cheap seats, from one to three pesos.
for one half of the amphitheater is In
the sun's glare; the high priced seats
are in the shade.
Preceding the fight was the usual
procession of performers just lilve
the opening scene under any "big top"
In the States. Banderillos, matadors,
picadors all appered in an array of
Bicwior anu iancy costume mat aazziea
jthe eyes.
Tricks Infuriate Animal.
This over, the arena was cleared.
Bring on the bull! As the bovine
rushed out. a small, thin dagger, with
colored ribbons attached is planted
between his shoulders. This is to pro
voke the buU. Then the boys with
the red flags get busy. The. bull
lowers his head, snorts and charges.
He misses. But he finally gets a
horse; maybe two. When the animal
appears sufficiently weary and angry,
the first act has ended.
Next, the banderillos. It is the du
ty of these gentlemen, armed with
fMcks two feet long, the end of the
stick containing a barb tn drive their
weupr ns into the back of the bull's
neck, behind the head. Thev comply
-three banderillos, each wih a pair
of bar b. if by this time the bull
lasn't displayed sufficient fury, some
jort of TNT chsrpe may be attached
to one of the barbs. This explodes in
the wtvmal's hide: thai gives him pep.
ITtftftlty, the matador, the execution
er who first toys with the bull, waving
his cloak under his nope, the bull
charging one way, then another. Aft
er thoroughly proving the superiority
of ma n over brute intelligence the
matador plnres himself in a strategic
n nsi t i o n raises his a rm and d r i ves
home the death f-'word, at the vulner
able point on top of the neck. But
on this occasion the sword was a
"dud."
The bull was spared. His fate In
he future is now in the hands of the
federal authorities.

and twelve child ren are being urged
by I'reniirr Ciemencoau. who is tour
ing the Department of War, his con
stituency iu the Ch&tnber of lumuttes.
Mr. Olemcneeau points out to his ru
ral audiences the need of repcopling
France, laying emphasis on the fact
that large families are more common
in Northern than in Southern France.
While the Premier is adhering to
his determination not to talk politics
while on bis trip, ho is giving whole
some advtoe to the throngs who come
to see him.
"Do not export taxes to he satisfac
tory to you,' he said. "Taxes never
please the payer, but the duty to pay
is as imperious as that fulfilled by
the soldier, who Is in danger if UN
taxpayer fails. Our allies have out
stripped us In this. In Kngland, for
example, the charge on the taxpayer
is much heavier than in France. Our
country assuredly suffered greatly
through the war, hut has today an
Improved material situation, which
demands sacrifice on the part ot" her
people."
An Improved Truck
of 22 Tons
Here is a truck that we believe represents the maximum power, efficiency
and economy that is available anywhere in the 2 to 2 ton class.
Even that is understating the facts because the capacity rating is extremely
conservative. It is built so sturdily and so well balanced throughout that it will
stand up under exceptionally strenuous service.
This improved truck is the latest product of the Republic factories. It is their
final achievement perfected from experience in building the more than 50,000
Republic Trucks now in use. At the Truck shows in all the principal cities it
has attracted wide attention from everyone interested in motor trucks.
Model 19 Republic INVINCIBLE
A late type, Red Seal Continental Motor
with an S. A. E. rating of 28.88 horse power
at 1000 r.p.m., gives ample power.
, A 4 speed transmission provides great
flexibility and added power in the low speeds
where you need it most.
Enlarged radiator with cooling capacity to
meet the needs of any climate or emergency.
. Oilless bearings supplant grease cups on
the brake shaft bracket and brake pedals.
A late type float feed carburetor insures
fuel economy and even constant power.
Perfected oil governor holds truck to rated
speed and delivers .full power at all speeds.
Wheels are artillery type; wheelbase 144 ,
optional 1 68 " Firestone pressed on tires 36" x
4" front 36" x 7 11 rear; pneumatics, extra price.
Every feature that Republic's vast truck
building experience has shown to be desirable
has been incorporated in this new truck. It is
a value that no truck buyer can afford to
pass over.
This truck is now on display at our sales
rooms. Come in and see for yourself what a
remarkably powerful and well balanced job it is.
Or telephone us and we will send our rep
resentative who will give you full information.
